Natural Methods to Stay Healthy Don’t Damage Your Ears Like Drugs
Can—and Do
Hundreds of prescription drugs can damage your ears
resulting in such things as hearing loss, ringing in the ears and
various kinds of balance problems. The result is they leave in their
wake people whose lives have just been flipped upside down. This does
not have to happen as there are a number of safer alternatives.
At the May meeting of the Hearing Loss Association
of America (HLAA)—Adams/York chapter, Neil Bauman, Ph.D., the author of
the book “Ototoxic Drugs Exposed” will explain some of the natural
things you can do to stay healthy, or regain your health, rather than
using drugs known to damage your ears. If you value your ears, you will
not want to miss his presentation.
Also, he will discuss some exciting new
developments regarding the open captioning of live theatre in our area,
and how to find captioned movies showing in theatres near you.
The meeting will be held on Thursday May 27, 2010
at 2:00 PM in the Nicarry Meetinghouse at Cross Keys Village—The
Brethren Home Community, 2990 Carlisle Pike in New Oxford. Come and
bring a hard of hearing family member or friend (and any questions) with
you. You are all welcome. There is no charge!

The Nicarry Meeting house is the second building on your left. (It has a
steep green roof). The parking lot is in front of it (on your left).
Go in the main entrance, turn left and go down the hall to where it widens

your hearing aids).

the front (when our captionist can make it—sometimes she has to work at that
time).
